I have a chiropractor that is in need of a new software system ASAP so I'm looking for some input. He was using Practice Today but must switch immediately. He was using a software from his billing service and he had to terminate his services with them. I don't know the details but it was something bad. The other billing service is a nice guy and he'd been with him for over 15 years but something happened. (We actually share accountants so even though I don't know what happened I do know it didn't involve billing directly, but it was bad and providers need to switch.)
OK, so you are all wondering why I'm asking for a software recommendation when I've been doing this for 20 years. Here's why:
1. I use Lytec but Lytec won't work for him. He needs to be able to do his SOAP notes and print workers' comp forms out. I designed my own C4 (comp) form to print out of Lytec and it works for me but it isn't ideal.
2. I am a NowMD reseller but believe it or not, I don't push something on someone that won't work and NowMD won't work for him for the reasons in number 1.
So, I am looking for anyone to recommend a chiro specific software (or at least able to do what Chiros need) that allows him to do his SOAP notes, and print NYS WC forms (if possible) that is also reasonably priced.
Thanks in advance for your help!

I bill for a handful of Chiropractor. Here is the two software we use. I like them both very much. I hope this helps.

Thanks, I was supposed to do a demo with Chirotouch yesterday and they missed both appointments. Not good marketing. But I will relook. Not familiar with the other but I will check into it! :)

I would recommend TotalMD, they could help with all of that stuff.

TotalMD is good one. Not sure they are chiro specific. PMRNC subscribers receive a discount with TotalMD. www.billerswebsite.com

Eclipse is a chiropractic software and has all of the NY State specific WC and NO Fault forms....

We have used MediSoft (yuk), ChiroTouch (good, but you basically have to build it to your specs and that's a good thing but time consuming) and Forte Systems Chiro 7000 and 8000 (I've only used the billing portion and really like it, but I can't comment on their EHR or PM systems, technical help is EXPENSIVE)

We have about 20 Chiropractors on Office Ally. Most we switched when we took over.
They like it, we save them money.
We work remotely nationwide, so if there was no Office Ally we would have to look for another business model.
For now our model works.
We also work with Chiro Touch, best in the paid group; but they have their own billing service which they pitch.

Thanks for all the input. The problem I'm running into is price. He is a solo DC so spending a ton on software is not an option. He will be using OA for the clearinghouse portion, but PM doesn't offer the comp forms.

This is why I didn't post, our chiropractors use eClinicalWorks. It has everything necessary for Worker's Comp (including the NYS forms, I just checked) but of course the price reflects that.

I don't know what their budget is but TotalMD is pretty inexpensive compared to other things that are out there. I'm not sure if it comes with the NY Workers Comp forms or not but I'm sure they could be created and if you called them they could tell you what it would cost to create them and then you would have an idea of the total cost. It would be way less than Lytec and eClinicalWorks but I'm not that familiar with the other ones.
